  Created in Adobe Illustrator and placed in InDesign dialogs appear misaligned in PDF format.

  Hi gps64259699,

  You open the PDF file in Acrobat or Reader DC? These elements have transparency? We noticed a problem in Acrobat/Reader ms where elements with transparency render correctly. This problem has been reported and engineering leans on it.

• InDesign - How can I change PDF export options when PACKING

  Hey everyone, I have an InDesign issue that was so irritating, but I don't know that I can describe it adequately.

  I'll try, I hope that makes sense, and it would be great if someone could help me.

  When you package an InDesign document a PDF is generated automatically.

  I can't figure out where to change the parameters of this PDF file that is created.

  For example: when packing, I would choose between pages vs spreads, or change settings of guides and funds lost for the PDF that will be created.

  The packaging process seems to just go with all this last use.

  So a solution that seems to do the trick is to go: file / export... to change the settings later dialog and then actually export the PDF file.

  When you return to package your file, the conditioning process then creates another PDF using settings you chose when exporting one.

  It's cool, I guess, it works, but this seems to be a waste of time.

  Is there a setting somewhere that you can change before you compress the file WITHOUT exporting a dummy PDF?

  Thanks for reading!

• Best way to get InDesign files (or the exported pdf file) Acrobat DC?

  Hi all

  I was taken to the top of the interactive forms in Indesign. I like the creation of form-everything is very specific and very accurate. I feel like Adobe is lacking in this regard and with regard to the toolset.

  / But /, Indesign does not support the level of script Acrobat when it comes to creation of interactive form. What I do is, I exported the PDF from Indesign, then by defining it as a background in Acrobat. That worked fine for me up until I created a multipage document.

  It seems that I can not put a background in Acrobat 1:1 with the pdf I created. It still affects each page with the background, be it a page of pdf or page 2 or page 3...

  Someone at - it a good workflow, a way to get the most out of Indeisgn without taking too many steps to change the pdf file in Acrobat? Perhaps with a plug-in?

  Have you tried the replace command pages in Acrobat. Seems it would be exactly what need you.

• You can export a folder InDesign CC book to individual PDF files?

  This has been a problem for a long time with InDesign for me, you can manually select the files in the folder from the book and export them, or open each file and export this path instead.

  You cannot export the folder from the book as individual PDF files only in the form of entire file.

  There is a Script, see the link: export specification documents to PDF | Peter Kahrel, who has worked on earlier versions of InDesign, but doesn't seem to work on the CC.

  Can someone point me in the direction of another script or fastest solution?

  HM, just tested Peter Kahrel's script with some fake documents in the latest version of InDesign CC - 2014.2 on OSX 10.10.3.

  Tried once, had the same problem: rotation for a few minutes beach ball. Did not wait an hour, but complete InDesign after five minutes.

  Restart InDesign, tried again, and then the script of Peter worked very well.

  The export of my six fake documents takes only a few seconds.

• InDesign CS6 saves my negative PDF

  Ive been having this problem for a few weeks now and Ive hunted online and found nothing.

  I use Indesign CS6 to create ads. The Images of these ads are .psd saved as CMYK or grayscale.

  I save them as PDF files and preview randomly preview PDF does not contain a logo of some and some images will be backwards (negative) don't know why. But when I open these files in Adobe Acrobat Pro they seem normal.

  It is a problem because when I send the files they see in this state an extract and not the entire file...

  Help, please

  The answer is stop using an excerpt. It is a PDF Viewer to standards for

  something other than plain vanilla PDFs.

  Find out what you export, when you create PDF files. It is called

  Adobe PDF and although there are many good PDF readers out there, using

  Another thing that Acrobat or Reader is hit or miss.

• InDesign cannot find the Adobe Pdf printer when saving as a postscript file

  Hello

  I'll print a brochure in a brochure. Therefore, I must save it as a PostScript file.

  My problem is: when I go 'Print Settings' to get the right size of the pages, I can't find the printer that I used before "Adobe PDF". Instead, I have to choose a canon printer, which does not give me a format A3.

  How can I fix?

  See you soon

  In OS X 10.7.3, the adobe pdf printer is not present so that you can have a wrkarounf to create the postscript file.

  (1) quit InDesign.
  2) navigate to Applications/Adobe Indesign CS5/Presets /.
  (3) in the Presets', folder create a file called PPDs (the name of the file is case-sensitive).

  (4) control - click on the following link and choose Save link under download the Acrobat 9 PPD:
  Acrobat 9 PPD

  (5) place a copy of the PPD downloaded into the folder created in step 3
  -After this restart the indesign.

  Chose the printer 'Postscript file', then PPD as "Adobe PDF 9.0" and make the postscript file.»

• Export docs Folio or InDesign to Flash or interactive PDF?

  I did a magazine for a retail brand in the United Kingdom, and I'm almost done.

  I now wonder questons by my client as chipboard pages can be exported in a format such as flash or interactive PDF. They want available on the internet, as well as on Apple or Android stores as an application.

  Not ayone we know if it has all the options available to achieve this?

  Thank you.

  You can export your Indesign an interactive PDF or SWF files. But it will not have much in common with your DPS application.

  And it will both advance the intention to set up ID files and additional tasks with separate layers for DPS and and SWF or PDF. I recommend only for applications with movies, a custom in app and possibly related navigation.  ESM, 360, Pan, scrolling images and animations of the html5 is prohibited.

• Problem using Adobe InDesign CS5 to prepare a PDF file to download on Magcloud:

  I use the trial version of Adobe InDesign CS5 30 days.

  I have downloaded the Magcloud model, created a document using InDesign CS5, it has exported to PDF and uploaded to Magcloud. Magcloud rejects my upload, saying: he has an incorrect number of pages. For example, if I create a 24 page document in InDesign, Magcloud think she has only 13 pages - front and back covers, 11 more two-page spreads.

  Details, please, how to export from InDesign CS5 so that Magcloud sees the same number of pages as InDesign.

  Thank you

• InDesign CS5 spits out huge pdf files

  I just noticed what is happening. File 7 very simple InDesign CS5 page. All type, 1 logo line art placed on a master page.

  When I export to pdf with Adobe 'smaller size of the file' preset, I get a file of pdf 750 k. Argh. I also get a warning in the summary saying saying that ' the preset specifies that some fonts are not shipped. This application always incorporates fonts. "Which I've never seen before. (I've not edited the preset).

  I need run optimization pdf in Acrobat and check all boxes in the last two parameters. This gets up to 65 k pdf.

  Any idea what's going on?

• The files HAVE as links within a file, indesign to then be a pdf file, problematic?

  I want to know if the files have linked to an indesign file, which must then be PDFed for the printer, problem somehow. I was always asked by my printer to have all my images within a PDF, CMYK value and saved in tiff format.

  It seems that they should not be a problem, and that by converting the format tiff s i just lose in detail and it being a chore, as I have over 150 images.

  Am I wrong?

  art of John Johnson says:

  What is a manual operation? where in illustrator I convert individually these or make me an option within indesign to do this to all the links of the eps?

  You can record an action to save as .ai and close the file, then run that in the form of lots on a folder of files. But I do not convert batch if I am preflighting. When I control upstream I open all the files, look for problems and potential problems, sync (if any) color, perform the action to remove unused items from the Panel, then save as a new file. I have always save as .ai with PDF compatibility and, if possible, check that all images are linked not shipped.

  Read my file for a file sizes have 370 Ko or there abouts, looks small (although we're talking here of line, maps, etc).

  But I can read is inside my document setup, under 'Transparency' my balance pixelation/vectorization is 75 (in the direction of vector), my resolution for line art & text is 300ppi, gradient and mesh is 150ppi. don't know if I'm just throwing numbers at you, but that's what I got.

  Those are the values by default of the effects of rasterization resolution (for example effect > esthetics > Drop Shadow) and gradient meshes are pixelated when you print or save a PDF file. I usually set up a predefined custom flatterer who goes completely to 100% and does not plan type or convert lines to fills. These are used for priting and record in PDF format only. Your .ai file contains a PDF high resolution whose Illustrator unknown when editing but that InDesign and Photoshop use to import.

  The size of the file is irrelevant to the resolution of the built-in images. 370 KB is quite small, however, and when combined with your description of the content gives heavily to think there is no raster elements, so nothing to sweat. You can open the links Panel to see if there are images embedded or linked. I expect none.

• Export documents within an InDesign book in a single PDF file

  I have several documents within an InDesign book. Is there a way that they can be exported in a single PDF file?

  Here is the script I use:

      for (var i = 0; i < data.chapters.length; i++)
         {
              show_list.children[0].selection = i; show_list.show ();
              
              DocName = data.chapters[i].name;
             
              app.open (data.chapters[i], false);
              
              f = new File (data.chapters[i].fullName.replace (/indd$/, "pdf"));
  
              app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange = PageRange.allPages;
              app.documents.itemByName(DocName).exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, f, false, data.preset);
              app.documents.itemByName(DocName).close(SaveOptions.no);
         }

  The script will export to the PDF format, but each document is a separate PDF file.

  Any HEP would be appreciated.  Thank you.

• remove hyperlinks in InDesign when you export to PDF

  I have an InDesign file with any of the hyperlinks set up that contains text that are URLS (for example, it includes the www.google.com text, but NOT a hyperlink to that URL). I need the file to set up in this way because I'm not allowed to publish PDF documents that contain active links. Whenever I export the InDesign file to PDF hyperlinks become active in the PDF file. This is the case whether or not the option "include...".  Hypertext links' is checked. The hyperlinks window is empty. Any advice on how to prevent that from happening or how to remove the links from the PDF?

  Thank you!
  Laura

  You can clear the check box of the hyperlinks on the output of the pdf dialogue box.

  In my view, though according to your preferences hyperlinks Acrobat become active anyway.

  In Acrobat preferences, in general it is usually defined to automatically detect URLS
